Interested in teaching Chinese. Have an international certificate of teaching Mandarin as foreign language. I have more than five years of experience teaching Mandarin to children and adults. I learned to assess a student’s level and needs and to plan adequate and structured lessons. I base my teaching style on each student’s individual needs and strengths. I strive to make material as accessible as possible, in order to promote growth and understanding. I have spent a great deal of time teaching a diverse student population. My goal is always to understand student needs and work to meet those needs while encouraging students to appreciate their strengths. I value the individual gifts each student possesses and want to help each child reach his or her full potential, while building confidence.

I have a great joy working with children because most of them are eager to learn. Along with patience and proper instruction I am a firm believer the scores will be achieved without the child feeling diappointed. I believe through visual picture walks and other techniques children want to be successful and make their parents and teachers happy. Having the right teacher, and right attitude which I have both the tutor and parent along with the teacher can see a change. We must reinforce the education to have a productive citizen for the future. As a graduate of a small junior college I believe one on one teaching gives students the advantage over a large group because the child can receive the necessary attention for learning skills in reading, writing and math. Many children learn differently some are visual learners,some are audio etc. I have been instructed through various techniques

I have not actually tutored students as a professional, but I have a talent for helping others. For example, in my last full time position as a Product Manager for an insurance company, I constantly received requests from fellow employees for assistance. The various requests I received included, but were not limited to, for help learning specific software applications and assistance in completing reports. I have also assisted youths in their reading and basic math skills. I realize that each student has his own unique style of learning and I adapt to that style. This insures that we are speaking the same language and also insures a better understanding of the subject matter. I am patient, easy going and considerate. I believe in constant feedback from my student to insure that he and I are on the same page. It is my goal to help him achieve the highest level of understanding possible

My background is fairly well-rounded. In high school I went to the Governor's School for Science and Mathematics (GSSM) and tutored high school students in the community in math and reading, as well as ESL. Also, part of the GSSM curriculum required students to do summer research at a 4-year institution in South Carolina. I did behavioral neuroscience research at USC. My interests then lead me to attend USC for college, and I went there for two years with a double major: English and Psychology. After a while, I found that research was not my life passion, and I transferred to Clemson University and changed my major to Animal and Veterinary Science, with the hope of going to veterinary school. This all means that I have a well-rounded background. I currently attend MSU, and am in a combined degree program (DVM/PhD), so I will become a veterinarian yet! I love teaching and working with chi

I believe however the child needs the information, is how I will teach. Children have many different styles of learning and you have to be flexible for them to become successful. I believe Mathematics can be fun and entertaining. I want the best for every child out there. I worked at Learning Center in Tupelo, MS for a year as a proctor for government issued tests and a mathematics tutor. I have not received my Elementary Education Bachelor's Degree yet, however, I am in the process of receiving it. I will graduate Dec. 2011. I have taken 21 hours in Mathematics so far at the college level, and love working with children. I have had to tutor from first grade to college level. I know that I do not have my Bachelor's yet, but maybe I could at least be reviewed. Thank you for your time.

I believe any students strive for the best in any subject in school, but may be struggling should receive help for a good instructor to help boost them to help them achieve the desired grades.

I have a love of learning and especially learning about people. This love lead me to earn a bachelors degree in Psychology and a masters degree in Sociology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding of students' persepectives. Although I have extensive experience in grammatical skills through writing research papers and essays, my skills in reading comprehension are my strength. I work with assessments both summative and formative on a daily basis. I find it important to ensure that the student understands one concept before moving on to mastering a second concept. I believe that all students can learn; however, the way in which a student learns may be different. Therefore, I use short formative assessments throughout teaching to measure the student's knowledge and understanding. Finally, I ensure that the student can generalize or apply the concept. These two points, recounti
